    Nadal

    The way things are going right now, I think Nadal is going to steamroll everyone - including Novak if he makes it to the final. Anyone know the last time these two guys played?

    Wimbledon semis last year i think, it was an amazing match. Don't think he steamrolls Djokovic like he most likely will the rest of the field. I think tonight first set might be competetive against Tiafoe, but 2nd and 3rd are going to be steamrolls.

    Nadal was a bit spent by Wimbledon last year, right now he's going full bore. We'll see. He's also stopped spraying on hair paint before every match. Proudly showing off his weird balding head. Good to see!

    He's also had a cupcake draw going into the QF

    Personally I don't think anyone should be that long unless they are on a flash in the pan fluke run which Tiafoe if people have read his story is certainly not that.
    He had to beat Anderson, Seppi and Dimitrov, two of those guys were a winner and runner up in earlier tournaments this year. So he's beaten guys in form.

    I stopped overestimating the big 3 after Nadal lost to Pouille at the US Open. I didn't have a play on it but these days anything can happen with how much confident these young guys are because they haven't played the top dogs as much as the guys who always lose to them have like Berdych, Raonic, Simon, Ferrer etc.

    And Tiafoe isn't a twig like Berdych and De Minaur...

    Nadal is on some high end roids. Going all the way.

    If Nadal displaces Novak, it'll be a solid argument for GOAT.
